On this day, 6 December 1989, 14 women, most of whom were training in engineering fields, were murdered in a mass shooting at the École Polytechnique in Montreal. The 25 year old shooter specifically targeted women, claimed he was “fighting feminism,” and killed himself after shooting 28 people. The victims’ names were: Geneviève Bergeron, Hélène Colgan, Nathalie Croteau, Barbara Daigneault, Anne-Marie Edward, Maud Haviernick, Maryse Laganière, Maryse Leclair, Anne-Marie Lemay, Sonia Pelletier, Michèle Richard, Annie St-Arneault, Annie Turcotte, and Barbara Klucznik-Widajewicz. The day is commemorated annually across Canada as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1284634265055054/?type=3

It is a well known fact that Latin is the true language of the gays

in Spain, “entender” (to understand), is very much used in the same way. “Ella entiende” = she understands = she is a lesbian

Tudo Bem? Has anyone ever tried a Pastel de Nata from Portugal? They’re really good and very traditional so if you ever find yourself in Lisbon, go to Fabrica de Nata as they make them fresh right in front of you and they’re to die for! 🧁✨

Also I had to get a copy of The Little Prince in Portuguese - O Principezhino - while I was there, the collection is slowly growing!
